Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Spaghetti Squash Lasagna Bake.
Step 1
Begin by preheating your oven to a cozy 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
While the oven warms up, take your halved spaghetti squash and brush the insides generously with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt and pepper for that perfect flavor boost.
Step 3
Place the squash cut-side up on a baking sheet, ready for its transformation.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven for about 45 minutes, or until the squash is tender and easily pierced.
Step 5
Once it’s done, let it cool for 5 to 10 minutes, allowing you to handle it without a burn.
Step 6
Grab a fork and gently scrape out the delicious strands of squash, transferring them to a mixing bowl.
Step 7
Now, lower the oven temperature to a warm 350°F (175°C).
Step 8
In a separate bowl, combine half of the shredded mozzarella cheese, ricotta cheese, a beaten egg, and Parmesan cheese.
Step 9
Mix this creamy concoction into the bowl of spaghetti squash, adding 2 to 3 tablespoons of spaghetti sauce to create a lovely pink hue.
Step 10
Spread half of this delightful mixture evenly in a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Step 11
Layer half of the spaghetti sauce over the squash, followed by a sprinkle of half the remaining mozzarella cheese.
Step 12
Repeat this layering process with the rest of the squash mixture, sauce, and mozzarella on top.
Step 13
Bake in the oven for 30 to 45 minutes, or until the mozzarella is beautifully melted and golden brown, creating a mouthwatering dish that’s sure to impress.
Step 14
Enjoy the delightful aroma as it fills your kitchen, signaling a delicious meal is on the way!.
